IMPORTANT NOTE: To comply with Sephora's terms of use, items cannot be listed "for sale" or even for trade for Sephora or other gift cards. Please do not list "prices" either (which implies selling), but you can list approximate trade value.

Because a number of fake items have been sent in trades, it is strongly advised you provide photos of your higher-end items, including the labeling (you may be asked for it anyway) and list WHERE you purchased the item from. Fakes are readily available from less reputable sellers and can contain toxins! It is important to everyone to know where their cosmetics come from.

Please also be aware that some makeup products cannot be sanitized - please use caution in your trades. When in doubt, ask the community, it's a great resource! Used items you may wish to avoid are mascara, liquid eyeliner, lip glosses, and cream products.

CommunicationPlease use the private message system on Beauty Talk and/or tag the user you are trying to get in touch with. Communication is key! You can tell a lot about a trade by how the communication goes. If you will be unavailable for any periods of time, please be up front, and if there are any issues with shipping please be up front about that as well.

DeliveryHaving tracking and insurance on shipments goes a long way to figuring out where an item might be. The USPS puts anticipated delivery dates and tracking numbers right on the receipt. If there is any issue with an item you have sent out, please follow up with the carrier.

Re: Subscription Central (Spoilers, Unboxings, and More)

@Lazybeautybeast Sweet spoilers! I ended up canceling the $10 glam bag, I kinda had enough of the deluxe samples. I also end up giving most of it away so it wasn't worth it anymore. I saw the spoilers for the Nov glam bag plus and was really not interested at all, so I paused the Glam bag plus for 1 month. Dec is looking good so far, so fingers crossed for fantastic Dec box.

Re: Subscription Central (Spoilers, Unboxings, and More)

Wow I think this box looks great! I’ve never tried ofra or juvias place so this is an awesome box for me already. I hope I get the ren! I don’t use eye liner so that’s always a busy for me but the color of the lippie looks nice and I’ll deff use the makeup removing wipes

@Kim888, this will be my 2nd Allure box. Since I subscribed a few weeks back I was able to get October's box and it should be coming this week. For the next box I have the Ofra highlighter and the Nubian palette, but they are both great, so I'll be regifting those Allure box items at Christmas. I think I'll be happier with Allure boxes than I was with the Play box I canceled last year.

Re: Subscription Central (Spoilers, Unboxings, and More)

I’ve been subscribing to Allure and really like it, @Lazybeautybeast. There’s more skincare than the regular Play sub which is great for me. But then I go after the special Play kits: the recent age-specific (40’s, 50’s etc) and the K-beauty ones.

RE: Subscription Central (Spoilers, Unboxings, and More)

October Mask Maven is here! Theme is Creepy & Cute. I am sooo digging this box, but wish it had arrived last week to really “feel” the theme. No worries, I am sure I will enjoy every minute of these masks anyway! How cute is the Bat eye mask and the ice cream sheet mask!!

Re: Subscription Central (Spoilers, Unboxings, and More)

I had seen something about this on Instagram but forgotten about it. I went and looked not too much to interest me, but there was a decent selection of around 20 or so products. Some had already sold out, but I agree, it's a great option for people who really want to try something out. It would only be better if we could swap out one of our samples for a new one!

RE: Re: Subscription Central (Spoilers, Unboxings, and More)

I love Boxycharm and have been a long time subscriber. I recently started Allure as well and most of it is sample sizes but sometimes you get full size products. With Boxycharm you always get full size products.
